Switch to deepseek-r1:7b as Ollama fallback

Reason: User reported that qwen2.5-coder:7b was repeatedly referenced despite being removed, causing fallback errors because the model does not support thinking required by certain Hermes jobs (e.g., cron jobs with reasoning_effort: medium). After verifying Ollama model list, the user confirmed the local model had been changed to deepseek-r1:7b.

Changes made:

• Updated fallback_providers.0.model in ~/.hermes/config.yaml to deepseek-r1:7b.
• Patched cron jobs d4def5626a43 (Uhrenabgleich 0 Uhr) and 471b5a167aa1 (Wissenstand-Fusion 1 Uhr) to use ollama/deepseek-r1:7b.
• Replaced all references to qwen2.5-coder:7b in skill references (voice-pipeline.md, ollama-model-guide.md, SKILL.md) with deepseek-r1:7b.
• Updated context_length_cache.yaml entries accordingly.
• Pulled deepseek-r1:7b via ollama pull deepseek-r1:7b.

Verification: After changes, cron jobs run successfully, and Hermes falls back to deepseek-r1:7b when OpenRouter provider fails.

Note: This skill now reflects the current local LLM preference for the user's VPS setup.
